Tour Description
Our tour guide will pick you up at your hotel at 8:00am or 1:30 pm. Then drive to Badaling section of the Great Wall. Badaling Great Wall is known for its imposing magnitude. The wall here averages 7.8 meters in height and has a width of 5.7 meters at the top and 6.5 meters at the base. The walkway on top is 4.5 meters wide, making it possible for five horses or ten soldiers to march abreast. It is one of the most gorgeous and magnificent part of the Great Wall in Beijing. Hike the Badaling Great Wall for 2 hours.
The wall is about 80 kilometers northwest from downtown Beijing. Badaling Grat Wall is perched on a mountain pass of the Jundu Mountain. It is recorded that the Badaling Great Wall was built to protect the Juyongguan Pass ( Juyongguan section of the Great Wall ) on its south, further protecting the city of Beijing.
To hike up the north section of the Badaling Great Wall, you have two starting points - either from the Badaling Pass or the Badaling Bear Park. Why two starting points? Actually there are totally 12 towers on the northern Badaling Great Wall. So you ether start at Tower No. 01 starting from Badaling Pass or Tower No.12 from Badaling Bear Park.
Most passengers prefer to hike the northern slope of Badaling Great Wall simple because the north part is more scenic and convenient with cable car and slide services in between. But still some people like to hike the southern slope to avoid the crowds for better photo opportunities. If you hike the southern slope, you have to backtrack.
Cable Car: RMB100 (single trip); RMB140 (round trip)
Opening Hours: 06:30-19:00 (in summer); 07:00-18:00 (in winter)
Hiking Time: Two Hours
On the evening before your departure early next morning or afternoon, you will get a call to your hotel room or a message at your hotel front counter by your tour guide to reconfirm your next morning's pickup time which is normally set around around 8:00 am or 1:30 pm.
On the morning or afternoon of your tour departure date, our tour guide will go to your hotel ahead of your pick-up time in the lobby, holding a sign with your name. When you come down to the hotel lobby, just look around for the sign to meet our tour guide.
You will have the narratives of local history and culture by your tour guide while you are comfortably sitting in the air-conditioned vehicle of your exclusive use and enjoying the views passing by.
Rush hours in Beijing can cause serious traffic jam. We try our best to manage the traffic and keep your schedule.
All tours & transfers are all based in English Speaking local guides. For other languages, please contact our trip advisors for new quotations.
